The New Orleans Saints will retain Rob Ryan as defensive coordinator.
Ryan's status was in limbo for more than a week after Sean Payton promised to make significant changes involving "every element of the program" following a disappointing 7-9 season.
Ultimately, the Saints decided to keep the faith in Ryan, who had tremendous success in his first year in New Orleans in 2013, when the Saints ranked fourth in yards allowed.
